Here is a four-measure phrase inspired by the great Buddy Rich. He used the first part of the phrase on the album"Buddy Rich Swinging New Band," West Side Story. It's at the end of his unbelievable solo.



The sticking is RLR LRL RLL. It is a 3/4 idea. If you play it 4 times - 4 bars of three = three bars of four. Add a triplet at the end and you have a great fill!
